Dr. Tandy Freeman

Tandy Rice Freeman III completed his internship at the University of Utah and his residency in Birmingham, Alabama, where he also completed a one-year fellowship program with the American Sports Medicine Institute. The friendship and mentorship of Dr. J. Pat Evans forever changed the course of Freeman’s career. In the 1980s, Evans looked after bull riders like Ty Murray and Donnie Gay. After a couple years of observing and taking notes, by the 1990s, Evans began referring rodeo athletes to see Freeman. PBR founders Cody Lambert, Tuff Hedeman and Murray sought out the services of Freeman when they began hosting events.
